Time-Bandwidth Products AG

Time-Bandwidth Products specializes in diode-pumped solid-state lasers, passively mode-locked using SESAM technology to generate ultrashort laser light pulses with pulsewidths in the range of femtoseconds to picoseconds. This technology enables a broad range of new applications of ultrafast lasers in areas such as precision measurements, sensing, optoelectronic testing, optical communication, clocking and switching, medical and life-science diagnostics, material processing and frequency conversion.

The company was founded in late 1994 to commercialize new developments in diode-pumped ultrafast laser systems. We are the only authorized spin-off of the Ultrafast Laser Physics group at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (also known as ETH, "Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule") and located in the city of Zurich. The company is a Swiss corporation ("Aktiengesellschaft" or AG).
